I think I've seen 2, 3 films with this guy, he's really hillarious... Good idea, Rick! :thumbup: :clap: :clap: :clap: :hi:

 JRFortson - 14/04/09, 19:02 reply
Yeah, he's famous for "Caddy Shack". My newest challenge is to thing of GOOD celebs that not many have drawn, ha!

 Paladino - 14/04/09, 21:34 reply
Yeah, I also have some unexpected famous or not-so-famous people in my mind and my gallery. Now I'm willing to do a series of great drummers - I've already drawn Maiden's Nicko McBrain, wax crayon. Another one's on the way, with pencil. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :hi:

 JRFortson - 14/04/09, 22:54 reply
great drummer drawing by the way!! Ever hear of Neil Pert from Rush?

 Paladino - 15/04/09, 00:44 reply
Oh, no, I can't believe it! It's exactly on him I'm working!... :cry: :berk: :cry: :berk:It was a surprise, you, you... :guffaw: :guffaw: :guffaw: :guffaw:

 JRFortson - 15/04/09, 02:41 reply
U R kidding? It's prob the only drummer I know, besides John Bottom? :guffaw: :oO: :grin:

 Paladino - 15/04/09, 01:37 reply
...Joking, it's OK! Really easy for you to guess, he's a genius, one of the best drummers of the world, if not the best... :D :D :D :DOh, thank you for your comment on McBrain above! :D :ok: :ok: :thumbup: :thumbup: :hi:

Well, if Neil Peart is the only drummer you know, I must say you hit the mark, 'cause he's really a genius, plays various styles, Rock, Latin and Jazz at the same solo so naturally like no one!!! We're talkin'bout THE drummer... :D :D :thumbup: :thumbup: :hi: :hi:

Thanks Anne-Marie!! I had fun doing him. He was a favorite back in the early 1980's! I'm trying to think of good stars no one has drawn. I've thought of several, but finding a good pic of them is another thing! :blowkiss:

no morals? :guffaw: Did you mean motivation, or is this another reference to naughty? :oO: I would LOVE to draw Angelina...As soon as I can think up a good reason to tell wifey why I'm drawing a woman she knows I have the hots for, I'll draw her, and probably spend more time than I should? :guffaw: I'm torn on which to draw next, I have SO many in mind I keep a list of 50+ next to draw. Was busy last night, and can't draw tonight cuz my son is playing in concert! spiritlessons.com/passionofchristpictures.htm Talk to you soon! :grin:

Rick salvation you what a pleasure to read .. each time ...

 JRFortson - 16/04/09, 17:55 reply
Here is how I interpret what you just said. "Rick, it's a pleasure to read and re-read what you said about me, and I DO spend a lot of time encouraging artists. Do you like virtual kisses? Because there is an artist named Johncleef on here that does not, and I'm not sure if he's an asshole. :guffaw: Anyway...huge kisses to you!" :kiss: :blowkiss:

 ANNE-MARIE35 - 16/04/09, 18:03 reply
I spend a lot of time to encourage and motivate artists (I am very generous) and french johncleef is an asshole and it annoys me .. (his site is on the portrait of Marilyn) I prefer the U.S. .. they are most guys like you .. I really appreciate that ... and the viva AMERICA Huge kisses Rick :grin: :grin: :grin: :guffaw: :guffaw: :guffaw: :laugh: :ok: :ok: :ok: :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :kiss: :kiss: :kiss: :kiss:

 JRFortson - 16/04/09, 18:18 reply
I read it, using an online french to english translator. As they say in America..."Don't sweat the petty stuff, and don't pet the sweaty stuff" :guffaw: Kick his dust from your boots and move on. He was probably toilet trained too early as a kid :guffaw: :| :oO: :grin:
